For its dog cheap P1,288 price tag, the Starmobile Play Click provides a decent, bare-minimum, no frills smartphone that doesn’t look like a total eyesore.

Any time I try to look for something vintage that I think I might be able to retrofit for smaller playing-card sizes (because they’re dog cheap in bulk), I wind up pulling a ton of results for scrapbooking punches.

Henry said Cartwright entered the wrong address, but because he’d never been in that town before, he couldn’t tell whether he was going the right way or not. He continued following the GPS, not knowing he was going the wrong way.

Craig Tull is facing charges of robbery with a firearm, shooting into a dwelling, aggravated battery (hành hung, bạo hành) and aggravated assault following the incident early Wednesday at his central Florida home.
